Although we may hang our hats on pasties and pork chops, Butte, MT has always been a city where you can find outstanding Mexican food.  From a quick taco or burrito to a sit-down meal, here are a few of what we think are Butte's best Mexican restaurants.

The first Taco Del Sol opened in Missoula in 1997 and offers "burritos and tacos influenced by the flavors from the iconic burrito shops in the San Francisco Mission District."  Their Mission Burrito is a local favorite, and their shrimp tacos are indeed a treat.  The Butte location is on the corner of Park and Montana on the Stephens Block.
